Burn/ Draw

The draw is very comfortable. The smoke was ample and the ash held for 1.5 inch.

Initial third:

The beginning is pleasantly woody with slight spice. The balance was perfect. The Choix Supreme is very easy to smoke, it's definitely a great cigar for beginners. As it progresses, creamy and smooth notes of coffee with milk appear.

Middle third:

In the second third, you find more peppery notes. Light- to medium-bodied from the beginning,

Final third:

It becomes more powerful near the last third, with rich honey notes mixed with just a bit of earth and leather.

In summary, the El Rey del Mundo Choix Supreme is very underrated. It is a hidden gem. It has enough flavor and complexity to be a good fit for a morning smoke with a light coffee. It would be recommended for beginners, can be a nice initiation to Cuban cigars. Definitely worth trying.

Light on the palate

Some cigars create a special memory in the cigar portion of your brain. They are memorable and lasting. This is not one of those cigars. However, it stands alone as a good smoke with a profile of cream, light nuts and woody overtones.
Perhaps a year or two in the humidor might give it more flavor. Still enjoy it for what it does now, not what it might do down the road.

A Great Everyday Smoke

At less than $8 each, this cigar stands head and shoulders over comparably priced offerings. The box I received is a bit more robust and complex than what I remembered, but it's a welcome change. With just 18-24 months, this cigar really comes into its own and can outperform some cigars costing twice as much. This will always be in my humidor.

A light cigar that is sweet with honey notes and fruity undertones. Its good for summer mornings and for sharing with friends that are new to cigars.
